The classical Greek city-state of Sparta won a formidable reputation for its prowess in hoplite warfare — a kind of warfare waged by phalanxes of soldiers wielding long spears and wood-and-bronze shields — dating back to the 9th century BC. It reached its apex in battle against the invading Persian armies of the Greco-Persian War, and thereafter in the Peloponnesian War against neighboring Athens and its allies. The primacy it achieved was short-lived, but the state’s self-confidence and skill in propaganda allowed it to preserve the legend of its heroic martial accomplishments long after its true power faded, leaving a body of tales still celebrated today. This legacy is commemorated by the 2023 3 oz Proof Cook Islands Silver Sparta Coin, now available from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
Sparta’s understanding of itself and its destiny in the world was anchored in ancient myths. Rooted in an ancestral past that could be traced to a hero descended from Zeus, it laid claim to a special role in the Homeric tales of the Trojan War. Princess Helen of Troy hailed originally from Sparta and according to some myths was rescued and returned to her native city after the war. These feats were the root of its self-confidence in the classical Greek era and sustained its populace and the will of its leaders to preserve its history at all costs even in the centuries of its time in vassalage to the Roman Empire.
The 2023 Proof Cook Islands Silver Sparta Coin comes with a Certificate of Authenticity in its original mint capsule, fully insured by JM Bullion and showcasing the beautiful mirrored backgrounds of a proof-quality collectible.
The coin’s obverse side features the classical artwork “The Return of Helen in a Quadriga,” Sparta’s triumphant act in the mythology of the Trojan War. Above this, the late Elizabeth II appears in an insert, surrounded by the inscriptions “Elizabeth II,” “20 Dollars,” “Cook Islands” and “2023.”
The reverse side features Spartan hoplites dressed for battle with gilded decoration on the helmet and shield of the soldier in the foreground. A modernized portrait of Helen of Troy accompanies them, with traditional motifs of Greek fortifications and designs in the backdrop. This is joined above by the inscription “Sparta.”

Lost in Transit is defined for the USPS as tracking not having updated in 5 or more calendar days. For UPS, it is 3 calendar days. You must contact us within 7 days since last tracking for USPS and 3 days since last tracking for UPS. If you do not contact us by these timeframes, insurance will not cover the package.
Once you contact us, we research the shipment with the carrier and begin the claim process. The claims process can take 30 or more days to resolve, and many Lost in Transit shipments end up getting delivered late. If the package is delivered, you must notify us within 24 hours.
See also Section 13 of our Terms and Conditions.
Though unlikely, if your order is damaged during transit and/or any items are missing we require you to contact JM Bullion immediately so we can begin the claims process. If you have taken possession of a shipment that is damaged and/or is missing items, you have 2 days (48 hours) from the date of delivery to contact us as stated in our Terms and Conditions.

Please note, per our Terms and Conditions, once a package shows delivered, our responsibility ends. Please be available and attentive to receive the package when the courier arrives.
